On the afternoon of November 13th, the Vietnamese national team continued their training at Viet Tri Stadium ( Phu Tho province ). This was the first time during this training camp that coach Kim Sang-sik had all 23 players on the field. After concerns about Dang Van Lam's thigh muscle strain and Nguyen Hai Long's shoulder injury, both players returned to training.

On the training ground, coach Kim Sang-sik demanded that the forwards improve their finishing skills and move in a way that suited the team's philosophy. Similar to previous training sessions, Nguyen Xuan Son continued to demonstrate his strength with bursts of speed and shots. This earned him much admiration from his teammates.

Striker Gia Hung praised, "Xuan Son's presence definitely makes the Vietnamese national team stronger." "Although he only returned after 11 months out with injury, Xuan Son has integrated and adapted very quickly," the Ninh Binh FC player shared. "He helps the team a lot. Xuan Son is on a different level, and we can learn from him about movement and the mindset of a true striker. Personally, I have a lot to learn from Xuan Son."

Remember on the first day of national team training, Xuan Son reassured fans by asserting that he was in top form after 11 months of recovery from injury. With what he showed on the training ground, the striker from Nam Dinh Steel Green kept his promise, stating that he was "100% recovered and ready to play, even capable of playing a full match without fear of risk."

However, whether Xuan Son will play in the match against Laos still depends on the decision of coach Kim Sang Sik. Also in a statement on the afternoon of November 13th, Gia Hung revealed that the South Korean strategist is "very cheerful, fosters unity, and always places trust in the players, bringing a comfortable feeling to all the national team members." For his part, Gia Hung said he will try to secure a starting position in the national team.

At the training ground, the Vietnamese national team's coaching staff announced the leadership team for this training camp. Accordingly, Duy Mạnh is the captain, while Quang Hải and Hoàng Đức are the two vice-captains. These are all experienced and reputable players, indispensable pillars of the Vietnamese national team.

The Vietnamese national team departed for Laos on November 15th to prepare for their match against the home team at 7 PM on November 19th at the Laotian National Stadium.
